What's that?

PvK
Pretty much what it says. Hitchhiking rides with planes. Private planes. I did quite abit of hitchiking the highways also which is of course fairly stupid. Putting yourself completely into some shmucks hands at 20000 feet is even worse. Like everything else... makes for great stories but not something Id recommend to someones kid.

Oops...now that I look at that question I see that you are totally right. I guess the best answer for #2 if you've never done drugs would be "nope". At least, that's what I'm assuming people will do. Or just skip it, as you did

Well got drunk twice if that counts as a (drug)I would NEVER drink again after time number two where bad things happened.
I'm 17 so not only is it illegal for me in the first place which made getting drunk DUMBER then normal since I'm not a drinker I downed a coffee mug full of burbone streight up, with no food or anything else in my stomach heh BAAAAD TIMES. Worst part is I have a bad gag reflex so I couldn't throw any of that crap in my stomach up I just kept having churning nausea until I got a brief spout of diahrea (SP?) where I was wishing that I had just thrown up lol.

Either way the headache is also NOT worth it in the morning I tell yah, ouch. Well other then those there are dozens of reasons I can give for never getting drunk or doing drugs EVER again.
(not to mention I think alcohol tastes like fermented chicken piss if ever there was one.)

Nah, you just had cheap bourbon

Never had the hangover nastiness, but then again the group I drink with (NEVER alone), all of us go for the better quality over low price. The one time I got sick was because the Russians were very persuasive (a "shot" is really, "exhale, down one shot, grab another, down that, wait about five seconds, then stick some fruit in your mouth") about "just one more drink", and I drank far too much. A liter of Grey Goose, plus some gin before hand, between three people. And the few times I have had the cheap stuff, it was bad enough that I didn't drink much unless it was VERY mixed.

But really, in the US it's better to lay off all that, at least until you're almost at 21. Until then, it's a lot harder to get anything worth drinking (read: will not make you sick, and is actually enjoyable). Plus most of the people you would be drinking with will do insanely stupid and dangerous things. As the age goes up, there is (usually) a bit more responsibility, and a few people willing to stay (relatively) sober to keep things under control. Ask the Vikings for more details about a safe, enjoyable drinking experience, should the occasion arise in the future

Hmm... Like someone else up there, nope. Never tried anything, never will. Don't need to, and I'm just not dumb enouph to get addicted to stuff like that.
